Abstract: A shield (3) is mounted in the driver's side window frame (7) of a vehicle by a lower support (5) containing a flat spring (49) which releasably pushes the shield against the upper window frame. A stand-off (17, 18) at the upper end of the shield spaces other portions the upper edge of the shield from the window frame. A shield handgrip (9) is angled 45° with respect to a lower edge of the shield, to permit the shield to be carried with one apex of the shield up.

Abstract: An embodiment of the invention is a fish scent dispenser that may be attached to any variety of fishing lure or fishing device to dispense scent derived from a scent source contained therein. A scent source can be added to a cavity defined by a base portion a lid portion of the fish scent dispenser when the portions are in an open configuration. The scent source can then be secured when the portions are in a closed configuration. The scent contained in or created by the scent source is dispersed through vents in the lid portion when the fish scent dispenser is submerged.

A scent source can be added to a cavity defined by the fishing lure or fishing device and a lid portion of the fish scent dispenser when in an open configuration. The scent source can then be secured when the fish scent dispenser is in a closed configuration.

Abstract: A fish scent dispenser, for attaching on a fishing line and dispensing fish attractant scent into water, comprising: a) an upper housing and a lower housing, the upper and lower housings abutting to each other to form both a cavity therein and a housing longitudinal axis therethrough; b) a fish scent material, located in the cavity, that is slowly dissolved in the water as the fish scent dispenser is pulled through the water; c) attaching means for attaching the fish scent dispenser to the fishing line; and d) rotating means, coupled to the fish scent dispenser, for rotating the fish scent dispenser about the longitudinal axis. It is more particularly claimed as features of the invention to provide the rotating means that may be a fin designed to cause the housing to rotate when water is forced over the upper and lower housing along a direction parallel to the longitudinal axis. The invention may further comprise a shaft extending through the upper and lower housing along the longitudinal axis.

Abstract: Apparatus and method for inhibiting the image of a transparent, undesired feature on a reticle from printing on semiconductor material. The apparatus includes a frame attachment connected to a pellicle frame that is attached to a reticle. A blade that is opaque to ultraviolet light is moveable across the frame attachment and may be positioned proximate the undesired feature of the reticle to prevent the printing of the image of the undesired feature on the semiconductor material. The blade may be positioned above the undesired feature to inhibit ultraviolet light from an illumination source from impinging upon the undesired feature. Alternatively, the blade may be positioned below the undesired feature to inhibit ultraviolet light passing through the undesired feature from impinging upon the semiconductor material.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for removing particles and reducing temperature within an equipment unit, such as a photolithography stepper unit. The equipment unit is located in a clean room environment. The clean room environment contains environmental gases and is defined by four walls, a floor, and a ceiling. At least one of the four walls is hollow forming an air chase. Outside air is circulated in the air chase. A hole in the wall containing the air chase allows communication between the clean room environment and the air chase. A skirt is connected to the equipment unit and the floor, and a shroud is connected to the skirt, the floor, and the hole. The skirt and the shroud substantially seal the equipment unit with the hole to allow environmental gases within the equipment unit to be drawn within the equipment unit to the air chase.
